Reisroute
Fushimi Inari is een van Kyoto's meest iconische Heiligdommen, bekend om zijn duizenden levendige rode torii poorten die schilderachtige paden vormen naar de beboste Mount Inari. Opgedragen aan Inari, de god van rijst en welvaart.
Arashiyama is een populaire bestemming sinds de Heian periode (794–1185), toen edelen hier kwamen om te genieten van het prachtige seizoensgebonden landschap. Het gebied is vooral beroemd om kersenbloesem in het voorjaar en kleurrijke bladeren in de herfst. De Bamboo Grove is een van de meest iconische plekken van Arashiyama. Wandelen door de hoge, wuivende bamboe creëert een vredige en bijna bovenwereldse ervaring. In het verleden werd bamboe ook gebruikt voor gereedschappen en bouwmaterialen in het dagelijks leven.
Het Arashiyama Bamboo Forest is een van de topattracties van Kyoto en biedt een rustige ontsnapping, omringd door duizenden hoge bamboestengels.
Het Arashiyama Kimono Forest is een van Kyoto’s verborgen pareltjes — een pad van verlichte kimonostijl kunstpalen die de elegante textielontwerpen van Japan laten zien.
Togetsukyo Bridge, wat “Maanoversteekbrug” betekent, is een beroemde bezienswaardigheid in Arashiyama. Het is de perfecte plek om te genieten van de natuurlijke schoonheid van de rivier, de bergen en de wisselende seizoenen.
Monkey Park Iwatayama ligt op een kleine berg in Arashiyama, Kyoto. Na een korte wandeling (ongeveer 20 minuten) bereikt u de top, waar meer dan 100 wilde Japanse makaken vrij leven. In tegenstelling tot een dierentuin zitten de apen niet in kooien – je betreedt hun ruimte. U kunt genieten van een prachtig panoramisch uitzicht over Kyoto stad vanaf de top, en zelfs voeden de apen met speciale snacks. Het is een leuke en unieke ervaring, vooral voor gezinnen en natuurliefhebbers!

We had the most lovely day with Ikki. He is the perfect tour guide — very knowledgeable, with great local insight, and he puts everything into context by adding interesting stories along the way. He also acted as our private photographer throughout the day, always making sure we got the best shots. Ikki is incredibly easy-going and friendly, and he made sure everyone in our group felt included and comfortable — even our teenager, which we really appreciated. The tour itself was a perfect mix of temples and history, beautiful nature, and a close-up experience with the monkeys. It was definitely worth climbing up to the monkey park, both for the experience and for the stunning view over the Kyoto area. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area.

I am so glad I picked this tour. Ikki-San did a wonderful job showing us his beautiful city. It was also very good to start early since Fushimi Inari was the highlight of the trip for me. He took time to explain items along the way & answer questions. It is best to go early since it gets extremely busy as the day goes on. He helped coordinate trains & took pictures along the way that was great bonus! The bamboo forest was amazing and visited monkey preserve on top of mountain that had great views of Kyoto as well. Be advised that it is a elevated hike so be prepared with comfortable attire & shoes, but there were plenty areas for break. The entire morning was so enjoyable & could not ask for a better or more thoughtful guide!
